Income Statement

Accounting & Bookkeeping Glossary

Definition

An income statement (also called a Profit & Loss statement) shows your revenue, expenses, and net income over a period of time. It answers the fundamental question: 'Did we make money or lose money?' Every business owner should be reviewing their income statement monthly — not just at tax time.
